This heated throw earned The Best rating from the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute because it generated the most consistent heat on the highest heat setting and was the most comfortable in comparative tests. The Best model fluctuated by only 1.14º F across its surface, proving to be 48% more consistent than other throws. The Best Heated Throw recorded the highest average temperature over three hours and reached a comfortable 10° F above ambient temperature at its peak. Unlike other throws that were made from thin, itchy fabric, The Best Heated Throw is knitted from plush 100% polyester fleece with an impeccably soft sherpa lining. The Best model withstood repeated cycles in a washing machine without pilling or fraying. The tethered digital controller allows users to easily adjust the temperature to six settings, the blanket’s 13' long power cord enables optimal positioning, and it automatically turns off after 10 hours of use. Sage, Chocolate, Taupe, Spice, Denim. 62" L x 50" W.

The micro-fiber material is soft and strong and the many heat settings ensure that you don't overheat, while providing ample heat where needed.

The one noticeable issue is the cord location, which is attached at the top center near the feet. This causes two problems: 1) The cord connector occasionally gets caught under our "zero-gravity" recliner. 2) The length of the control cord is too short, which sometimes causes the control to slide off our side table and onto the floor when the recliner is lowered. Both of these problems can be managed, but it takes a little getting used to. This all assumes you use the blanket as directed, with the label facing out at your feet. Perhaps placing the label at the top end (which I usually have done with heating blankets) might mitigate these issues.

If you use it as directed, probably the best single improvement would be to lengthen the control cord so there is plenty of slack to set the control down next to where you are sitting and not have it pulled away when you get up. (The plug cord, which plugs into the wall, is plenty long enough, however.)

The fabric's softness and flexibility on both sides naturally hugs and relaxes the body and relives mental stresses of the day. Ease of assembly and disassembly of the electric cord makes storage fast and convenient. Best heated throw I have ever experienced. Can't thank you enough.

Based on other reviews, I knew the cord placement may be an issue. To hopefully alleviate this concern, I placed my throw sideways across the bottom of my full-sized bed. The only things I need to be careful about are not covering the cord with blankets placed on top of it and not getting out of that side of the bed at night.The throw heats up quickly and keeps me warm all night; I've had to turn it down because it's so good at its job. It's incredibly soft and considerably lighter in weight than any other electric blanket I've used. I love that the thin wires don't poke me while I'm sleeping.It does get staticky due to the fleecy side. I'd prefer to have the smooth side on both faces of the blanket, but that's just me being nitpicky!I've been using it nightly here in NYS and am already considering purchasing another one!
